Washington, Nov. 8.'——The Currency Commission, which has been in session here for several weeks, is ready to formulate a report. It is expected that this will be forwarded to Congress as a petition from citizens and referred to the Committee on Banking and Cur- rency. The recommendations of the commis- sion will differ in some particulars from the plan submitted by Secretary Gage at a recent Cabinet meeting. The im- pression is that the commission will en- deavor to popularize its plan by in- cluding concessions by the national banks as a compensation to the public for the advantages which the banks would be expected to reap from the system of currency proposed. The plan will contemplate the with- drawal from circulation of demand ob- ligations upon the Government and the funding of obligations in gold bonds. But it will probably propose a 2-per-, cent. rate on the refunded debt instead pf 2%, as favored by Mr. Gage, thus saving a big interest charge to the Government It will also propose to put upon the banks the obligation to maintain gold payments. ' It is estimated that it costs the Gov- ernment $21,000,000 a year to maintain the parity of‘ the currency, and it is: claimed that by putting this obligation .upon the banks there will be a saving of that sum to the Government. Another proposal which is being dis- cussed, but may not be approved, is to levy a.tax of a fraction of 1 per cent. upon the banks as an insurance fund to guarantee deposits. TO OPPOSE ANN EXATION. Delegation of Native “Hawaiians to Visit Washington. Washington, Nov. 8.—-Word has been received here that the delegation of na— tive Hawaiians who will come here to oppose annexation is made up of Prince David Kawananakoa, James K. Kaulia, David Kalauokalini and J. M. Kanea- kua. The Prince will pay his own ex- penses, but those of the remaining dele- gates will be met by a subscription among the natives, the amount to be‘ raised being $4, 500. The delegation is to arrive at Wash- ington about Dec. 1. Mr. Kaulia will act as official chairman. He will bring with him the resolutions adopted at a mass meeting of natives, the essential feature being opposition toannexation. The delegation will not urge the reso- lution of the former Queen or of any, other representative of royalty, but will confine their efforts to having thepres- ent status of Hawaii as a republic maintained. The committee will com- municate with Queen Liliuokalani and endeavor to_secure her indorsement of this plan, but failing in this they are authorized to‘proceed without her co~ operation for the maintenance of the present status. The delegation expects to have an early interview with-Presi- dent McKinley. . It is said, however that- this move— ment by. the natives may be offset by a f counter movement of native Hawaiians favorable to annexation. CONSPIRED TO KILL MORAES. Attack'fon Brazil’s President the Re- sult of Monarchical Plotting. Buenos Ayres, Argentina, via Gal- veston, Tex” Nov. 8.—In Rio Janeiro, Brazil there is a general belief there that the attempt to kill President Moraes Friday was the result of a conspiracy headed by monarchical plotters. Whether the conspirators planned the death of Gen. Bethencourt, the Minister of War. who was shot and killed as he stood beside the President. remains to be seen, but there are rea- sons to believe that they did. The monarchical sympathizers, particularly that portion which was inclined to sympathize with Antonio Conselheiro. the leader of the fanatics, who was re— cently killed, were very bitter against the Minister of War because of his ag- gressiveness toward the fanatics, hence a plan to kill Gen. Bethencourt and the President together was not impossible. Rio Janeiro, in view of the remarka- ble excitement which followed the deed. is unusually quiet. In the meantime, however, every precaution is being taken to protect the President, as it is feared another attempt on his life may be made. A strong guard has been plaCed arond his residence. Several persons have been arrested In connection with the crime. The sol- dier who tried to kill the President. however, still declines to give any rea- son for his crime. All efforts to make him talk haVe proven fruitless. “Masons to Meet in :1 Cave. ‘ Denver, 001., Nov. 8.—The Grand Lodge of Arizona Masons next Wednes- day will hold its annual ses‘Sion in a natural cave 300 feet under ground. Re- cently workmen in the Copper Queen mine broke into the cavern.- Williams Brothers, whoown the mine, are Ma- sons, and at once offered it for the Grand Lodge session. There will prob- ably be the fullest attendance ever known by a Masonic governing body in the Southwest. Gov. McCord, of Ari- zona, Potentate of the Shriners, will attend. as well as most of the Masonic officials of Arizona and Sonora. The' cave is at Bisbee, one of the most unro- mantic of mining places, set in a gorge ‘of the Mule Mountains in the south- western part of Arizona. Big Deal in Sugar. Honolulu, Hawaii. Nov. 8.——The Ha- waiian Star announces that contracts have .been signed in New York for 80,- 000 tons of Hawaiian sugar of the crop of 1898. Another large block of sugar will be taken by the new refinery at Post Costa, Cal. This contract is with "the combination of sugar plantations outside of those consummated upon better terms thanthe planters have ob- tained heretofore." The first ship to load will be the Tillie Starbuck, now in port. Several veSsels of the Sewell Line will be chartered also. Weyler Goes on Ills “my. Havana, Nov. 8.—-The steamer Mont- serrat, on which Gen. Weyler and his staff sailed from ,Havana for Spain, and which was compelled to return to Gi- bara owing to some disarrangement of her machinery, has completed her re- pairs and again started on her voyage. Captain-General Blanco has issued a proclamation to the troops in which he enjoins discipline and respect of pri- vate property. He says that families which do not resist the troops must be, conveyed to thélgarrisdn towns. ‘. AS CHAIRMAN JONES SEES IT. lle Thinks the Elections Show 11 Growth of the Silver Sentiment. Washington, Nov. 8.—Senator James K. Jones, of Arkansas, chairman of the National Democratic Committee, has returned to Washington and will re- main until the opening of Congress. Of the result of the elections last week he said: _ “It is an omen of coming and greater good. This result convinces me that the silver sentiment grows and grows, and that by the next.Presidential elec- tion it will have grown to an irresisti- ble growth. Error dies from a. pin scratch, but truth survives a cyclone. When it comes to a long race and hard race the Democratic party gets. “Of course it would have been more desirable had Mark Hanna been buried under an avalanche of Democratic votes, but when a great man saves his scalp only by the Skin of his teeth it is virtually a defeat. Ohio Democrats are very good fighters when they get roused, and, * am sure that in the Pres- idential election they will be fully aroused. Between now and then we will do a great deal of missionary work, and I am convinced that the Republi- can party will do a great dea1 for us also. Democratic revival meetings will be held all over the country, and many hitherto good Republicans will see the error of their ways and straightway reform. ' ' QUICK'JUSTIOE. Murderer- Sentenced to Death by ‘ Hanging at Express Rate. Parkersburg, W. Va.. Nov. 8.—-The legal trial and sentencing of John Mor- gan, of Jackson County, will go down in the records of West Virginia as a. » sample of justice as swift almost as lynching. Morgan brutally murdered three members of the Green family early on Wednesday morning, and was sentenced on Saturday to be. hanged, having been duly indicted on Thursday and tried with all formality on Friday. Five hours from the time the first evidence was taken in the case before Judge Reese Blizzard the jury had re- turned a verdict of guilty, and it was only'sixty hours after the commission of the crime until the death watch was placed over the condemned man. A mob was formed Wednesday night to lynch Morgan. Judge Blizzard stayed at the jail with the Sheriff all night, three times addressing the mob and promising a speedy trial, no favors and full penalty for the accused if he were found guilty. His promises satis- fied the mob. Morgan made a confes- sion, but said that he had committed the murders in self-defence. Morgan weighs 125 pounds, is 27 years old, has large blue eyes, a hooked nose and a low forehead. He comes of. a bad family. his father having been murdered by his mother, who was in turn murdered by a brother of her vic- tim. ' HANNA WILL BE RETURNED. There fiVill Be No Contests in Ohio or Maryland. Washington, Nov. 8.——Democrats coming to Washington from Ohio and Maryland almost without exception ad- mit that Senator Hanna will be re- turned and that Gorman is defeated. The talk of Contests in either State is deprecated by the most conservative, and they seem inclined to acept the re- sults of last Tuesday’s verdict without question. Democrats from the East are much encouraged by the results in New York and New Jersey, and say that the indi- cations are that Democratic Senators will be returned in place of Murphy and Smith. Democrats hope for Con- gressional gains in Pennsylvania next year. .They say that it is notable that for the first time in many years the Republican vote in the State is less than that of the combined opposition‘ vote.
